An authentic salvaged heavy brass ships passageway light, removed years ago from the cargo ship and made by the 'PAULUHN ELECTRIC,' Houston, Texas, on the upper ring of the fixture and 'PAULUHN' on the bottom edge of the brass cage. These authentic brass fixtures feature a standard bezel-type clear glass globe and bezel-style heavy brass wire cage. Lights like these were used in common work areas of the ship as well as passageways. Their housing is made of heavy cast brass and weighs just shy of 6 pounds. The height of each light is 8 1/2 inches to the top of the cage and 4 5/8 inches in diameter, exclusive of the two mounting feet. Comes with a new, replaced 110-120 UL Listed socket and is ready for electrical installation!
These vintage lights are the perfect fixture for both indoor and outdoor use. Can be used outdoors for deck lights, post lights, dock lights and porch lights. They're also perfect for indoor use anywhere that you need a great nautical fixture. These are also a favorite for restaurant use as booth lights and bar lights! Truly the finest made light fixtures designed to withstand the harsh conditions of oceangoing and other maritime vessels.
This fixture was removed in the 1970's from a retired cargo ship, part of the James River ghost fleet
